how did I miss this post? It makes me hungry to read the comments.. I want to try them all.. I will be thinking of my recipe.. it might take a minute.. so it doesn't have to include pumpkin? I am guessing that is how you changed it.. I will get back to you!

I love your cute pumkins.!! I hesitated to post this because I don't have the exact recipe. It is soooo good and easy.
1 big can Libby pumpkin
1 cube butter
1 yellow cake mix
whipped topping

You mix your pumpkin with the spices and sugar like your making a pie. Put it in a cake pan. Then you melt the butter and mix it with the cake mix until it's a moist crumbley mixture. Some people like lots of cake and use the whole thing some use less for less cake. You crumble the mixture on top of the pumpkin mixture and press it in lightly. Bake at 350 until the top is golden and you can put a knife in to the pumpkin and it comes out clean. Don't over do it. I serve with homemade whipped cream but you can use what ever you like best. Delish!

I posted my recipe on my blog. Sorry, that is what I thought we were supposed to do. It is tasty though, so that should make up for the inconvience of having to go there to find it, right?

Michelle, your pumpkins are darling and I can't wait to read your comments for more great recipes. My recipe has to be the easiest one known to man: 1 large can pumpkin + 1 yellow, white or spice cake mix. Mix well and bake in greased 9” x13” pan at 350 degrees for forty minutes. Serve with whipped topping. And...it's weight watcher approved, since it's theirs. :)
